yes but I don't think they are stackable w/ the 15% so you must pay tax!

But as always YMMV!
on that note I bought $90 of stamps together with 2 free photo papers on my "Staples GC"!
its against the T&C!

They are stackable. + if you pay with rewards there's no tax.

[Saver2000]

If you buy 2 pastel papers,  make sure the cashier enters the coupon number twice. If not,  you'll only get a rebate on one of them.

so 2 Photo paper + 1 regular paper + 2 Pastel paper = 54.95 - %15 = 46.71 + nj tax = $49.97 Get back 54.95 = 4.98

Might be a great way for me to cash out a $45 rewards cert, anyone with experience using them together with coupons? on far items?
ETA:

I guess that answers my question?

"Each item purchased can only be discounted by one coupon, applied by cashier in order received and prior to tax"

Well it does work. The technical reasoning behind it is bec its a dummy sku, as opposed to a custom coupon code.

Heck Yeah!
I'm trying to burn through my GCs!
I have $450/$750 left!


question:
if I get a limited Item (2 per Household) and I give them my Rewards number and I submit the rebates on different addresses.
Does that work?
I once had a rebate rejected but I'm not sure if that is the reason.
(I got it back as a "one time courtesy" from CS)

Nope. It's no prob. Rebates aren't tracked by rewards number. Just make sure all the info on the rebate form is different than the first one.

If you are looking to unload a large amount of gift cards they have the trend micro anti virus software marked down online to $24.99 with a $20 SER (10 per household). That comes out to approx $1.24 after the 15% off coupon and rebate but before tax. The thing is that it's online only but coupon and gift cards are in store only so you would need to order it from the in store kiosk and pay at the register.

$25 off coupon

??

if you have a $25 off coupon you can use it for this and instead order the download version online to a store in a state w/o sales tax 

[Saver2000]

Here's the link to the downloadable version

@Saver time to start a staples thread on here? 

I don't think that's possible here. It takes alot of trial and error to figure out all the "niddy griddy" each week and I don't think we have enough manpower here for that.

I myself am not a staples expert. Some weeks - like this week - when I have alot of rewards to cash out, I go to fwf and read every post in both staples' threads to find out what not to do.

To maximize the rewards, the best thing to do is buy FAR stuff with coupons. When doing any one of those - let alone both together -  many things can go wrong.
It sounds dumb, but check out fwf and you'll see there's a whole world of staples guru's out there.


For starters, for those looking to get/make money off staples rewards, see this thread regarding the ink recycling program.
